Hey Keith. I am sure you are aware that I am proponent of SBSP but one thing 
that troubles me is that I have yet to see a good plan to get rid of the waste 
heat generated by gigawatt power generation in the vacuum of space. Do you have 
any suggestions on how to cool an SPS so that the resistance of the power 
conduits does not choke off the power supply? Anybody?
